Sub-Floor Testing

Protimeter testing floor moisture

We can survey floors to ensure that the moisture content is within the requirments of the products being installed.


Survey

Our surveyors can carry out a moisture check as standard practice to our customers when they place an order with ourselves for installation of vinyl floor coverings.

It is recommended that a moisture check is carried out as if moisture is present in the floor substrate that vinyl is being fitted to then this can lead to failures of the adhesives and latex.

Protimeter

Protimeter

The meter can take a number of different readings and we can provide a printout of the results.

Equipment

We use high quality Protimeter moisture meters which are capable of determining the moisture content within sub floors , this can be a non-destructive test and can generally sense through existing vinyl floor coverings, if a high moisture content is found we can then carry out a more extensive tests (using a humidity Sleeve) to determine the RH levels of the sub floor
